ABSTRACT:
A motion transmitting remote control assembly (10) for transmitting motion in a curved path comprising a flexible core element (12) having first and second ends and movably supported by a conduit (14) having a first end, a terminal (16) attached to the first end of the core element (12), an end fitting (18) attached to the first end of the conduit (14) and defining a guideway (20) for guiding the terminal (16) during to and from movement of an extended length of the core element (12) in the guideway (20), and a collar (22) in sliding relationship with the guideway (20). The core element (12) has a core cross section and the guideway (20) has a guideway cross section. The guideway cross section is larger than the core cross section. The collar (22) slides between the terminal (16) and the end fitting (18) occupying a first portion of a difference in the core cross section and the guideway cross section to prevent buckling of the extended length of the core element (12) extending from the end fitting (18) to the terminal (16).
